Objective: There is highly co-incidence between hypertension and insulin resistance which is the important causative factor to develop diabetes mellitus (DM). There is paucity of data to establish the effect of beta-blockers and ARB on blood glucose level in Indian population. Therefore the present study was planned to search so that confederation among Indian population in a teaching hospital. Methods: The research study was carried out in 85 hypertensive patients without diabetes visiting the OPD of University teaching hospital (Majeedia hospital) New Delhi. Blood glucose levels and drug history of hypertensive patients were observed during four month of study. Results : The gender distribution of hypertensive patients reveals a higher percentage of incidences in males (53%) as compared to females (47%). Hypertensive patient without diabetes mellitus (DM) on beta blockers shows higher incidence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (13.3%) and DM (5%) as compared to patient receiving ARBs as antihypertensive therapy. There was proportionate increase in incidence as the duration of therapy. None of the patients who were on angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) reported any incidence of IGT or DM. Conclusion: Beta blockers  may be the risk factor to develop diabetes mellitus type 2 on long term use as an antihypertensive therapy. There were no any incidence of impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus found in case of patients taking ARBs as an antihypertensive therapy so it can be safely prescribe in hypertensive patients associated with diabetes mellitus type 2. Key Words: Hypertension, Diabetes mellitus, Impaired glucose tolerance, Beta blockers and ARBs.
